Escape to peace and tranquility on the Cornish coast at our luxurious 4 bedroom home with breathtaking sea views towards nearby Looe. Sunkeeper is pet-friendly and incredibly well-equipped with a hot tub, outdoor TV, fire pit, BBQ, Sky TV, whole-house sound system, extra TV/ chill-out room with games consoles, log-burning stove, king/ super-king sized beds (2 zip & link) and an EV charger. The dog-friendly beach, SW Coast Path, shop, local pub/s, tapas bar & beach cafes are a short walk away.

The space
From the moment you step into Sunkeeper, the south-westerly panorama towards Looe and the Cornish coastline draws you in — you'll never tire of the sweeping, ever-changing canvas of sea and sky, by day or by night.

Living & Entertaining (2nd Floor)
A large, open-plan living space flooded with natural light and framed by mesmerising sea views. There is an oversized L-shaped sofa and an 85-inch TV with surround sound which gives a cinema-like experience. The log burner is perfect for cosy, cooler days. The glass doors slide open to let the outside in via the huge sea-facing balcony.

The kitchen is a joy to cook in and is complete with a double oven, induction hob, large wine cooler and has every utensil you could think of! The marble dining table comfortably seats 8; a breakfast bar with 4 bar stools keeps things casual. Separate WC.

Sleep & Unwind (1st Floor)
3 luxurious bedrooms, each with sea views, balcony access and quality linen. The master suite has a super-king bed, 65-inch TV, Bluetooth ceiling speakers for your own soundtrack, and an ensuite with a bath and a rainfall shower. 2 further bedrooms offer flexible zip-and-link beds that convert from king to twin — ideal for families or groups of friends. These rooms share a bathroom, also with rainfall shower. A dedicated desk in one of these bedrooms combined with ultra-fast WiFi offer comfortable remote working if required.

Down the hall, a cosy snug with games consoles, various board games, and a 65-inch TV gives kids (and big kids) their own space — or doubles as a quiet retreat for time away from the action. The utility room with washer-dryer keeps life easy on longer stays.

Ground Floor Retreat
A fourth bedroom with super-king bed complete with luxurious ensuite — perfect for grandparents, early risers, or anyone who wants a little independence. Sea views here too, naturally.

Private Garden
Out the back, the enclosed private garden is a tranquil haven from breakfast until evening — fully fenced, it's ideal for children and pets. Relax in the six-seater hot tub, fire up the Weber BBQ while watching the outdoor TV (with Sky Sports), or gather around the Solo Stove fire pit while gazing at the stars.

Sea-facing balconies
Two front balconies with unrivalled views of the horizon all day long offer a perfect setting for long, lazy lunches around the outdoor dining table or stretching out on a sun lounger with a cold drink. Later in the day, you can marvel at some glorious sunsets.

Dog-Friendly & Family-Friendly
Sunkeeper is genuinely pet-friendly and equipped for guests of all ages. The enclosed garden allows dogs and kids to play and roam freely; the nearby beach is dog-friendly all year-round and kids love playing on the sand or exploring the rock pools at low tide. What’s more, the ground-floor outside shower means that sandy feet and paws can be rinsed off before stepping inside. We welcome well-behaved dogs and provide bowls, towels and blankets so you can travel light; there is a travel cot and highchair for younger guests.

On Your Doorstep
The dog-friendly beach, the SW Coast Path, a local shop, pubs, a tapas bar, and beach cafés are all a short walk from the front door. The fishing town of Looe is just down the coast and you're within easy reach of some of Cornwall's most beautiful unspoilt beaches, countryside and attractions — from Rame Head, Whitsand Bay, Polperro, Fowey and Talland Bay to the Eden Project and the Lost Gardens of Heligan.

The Practical Bits
-Private parking for up to 3 cars on the driveway or in the double garage.
-EV charger (7kW) available via the Monta app (59p/kWh).
-Whole-house Bluetooth sound system.
-Ultra-fast, reliable WiFi.
-Premium Sky TV channels and a host of streaming services in all areas.

Other things to note
Sunkeeper is our pride and joy — a home we've poured real time and love into creating. We're delighted to share it with guests and simply ask that you treat it with the same care you would your own home.

We're lucky to be in a peaceful village setting, so we ask guests to keep noise to a minimum outdoors and observe quiet hours between 10pm and 9am. Sunkeeper is not suitable for parties or events, and Airbnb-approved noise monitoring is in place.

While dogs are very welcome, we ask that they're not left alone in the property or outside.
